“Impressive former bank building gives the lobby and restaurant an imposing feel. It looked clean and smelled good (what the hotel expect you to say). Rooms were quite good - we did not request a "city view" (extra charge) but you really do look across a few feet at other windows. If you want a view, request and pay for it. Beds were quite firm and not as good as other sub-brands in the Marriott Group. Wifi worked well. Staff dealt very efficiently with elevators not working for part of the weekend. There is reduced rate parking right across the street (be careful as the turns are tight - best not with a pickup or large SUV) and connected with a skywalk. This is a good downtown location for activities such as Target Center, the Armory but it is also not noisy.”

“This place is amazing. The place has so much to take in as it used to be a historic bank. The bar area and dining room are in the former lobby with the kitchen behind the old teller windows. They have a great stainless steel pool and hot tub. The rooms are very nice and spacious. The location could be one of the best downtown Minneapolis, within walking distance of the light rail and us bank stadium.”

I feel like The Westin used to a nice hotel 10 years ago, but they haven't kept up the times. We mistakenly booked the least expensive room, and the view was quite literally facing another room that you could see into, so we had to keep our windows closed the whole time. Definitely pay the extra $20 for the street view.
The design of the bathroom was just strange. The door pushed in and the shower door pushed out so they would hit each other, and if the door was open you couldn't get into the bathroom to the shower.. our toilet ran the whole time we were there, we told maintenance and that fixed it for about an hour, and then it ran again. The first night there are shower didn't get hot. We went in the hot tub once and I would call it a lukewarm tub, my husband wouldn't even get it.
I still give it three stars because the room was clean, they had Starbucks coffee for the coffee machine, and they gave you a bottle of water (though only one so you had to ask for more).
Also, the website advertised continental breakfast but keep in mind you have to pay for that, and that ranges $10-20.
Overall it was fine but I probably won't stay there again.

My family and I enjoyed our stay. The room was very clean, the carpet was very outdated and need to be replaced asap. The room was spacious, bathroom was clean with a shower and bathtub. My kids loved the pool area. Food area was beautiful alot of lights and a bar in the middle. Scott at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. Love that the parking garage was right across the street. My kids love Starbucks and their was one inside but sadly was closed during our stay. Fitness area was nice Loved all the mirrors. We will stay again, hopefully carpet will be replaced soon!

I would not suggest this hotel. Here’s why:
Starting with pros:
1- history is cool, it was a bank before so the furniture in the entrance, lobby, restaurant, is very unique.
2- having an inside pool and hot tub in winter on Minneapolis is definitely a plus but I think they could make the area look nicer and cozy for the price the guests pay.
3-
Cons:
1- costumer service isn’t good enough as I expected. Could never get the right information about my breakfast or information about the skyway…
2- I found chips and a bottle under my bed 🙃 felt quite disgusted.
3- the size of the table and the couch in the restaurant is definitely not regular. I’d suggest sitting on a chair even if the couch looks more comfortable it won’t be anything like comfortable.
4- prices are not good for what you get.
Marriot has better hotels.

Awesome building

The Westin in Minneapolis has a great lobby space in the heart of downtown, and is a great reuse of an old bank building (Wine Vault, anyone???). The lobby, with the bar and other areas, is huge...

Kelly Phillips (front office manager) really went above and beyond to make sure our room was ready early when we showed up with our 3 year old desperately ready for ânap timeâ
Awesome Service, great...

Ask the clerk to get $10 off the $35 parking rate at the recommended garage. I neglected to do so and wound up paying full rate for the first day. I would still be paying full rate for 4 days if I...

We arrived at the Westin Sat Sept 11th and were warmly greeted by Trace. He was helpful and friendly and had a great sense of humor. He even found us a Packer bar to watch the game on Sun.
